Is MBA a gurantee to financial success?

[Arunkumar]

I am 32 years old and still unable to  decide whether it's the right time to apply for  MBA? Is it very essential to puruse MBA for financial success? What do yo suggest?

It is evident you have waited too long and I would say  any age  after 30 years  will be harder to get into Full time MBA  programs in internationally reputed Bschools  though not impossible. Secondly, MBA is not a guarantee for any financial success. Not all world's richest people went through business schools. However, I would admit
that MBA from Harvard , INSEAD , Wharton and the other top schools bestows a brand success which is  hard to ignore. Not many realize the gap between a Masters program and a two year MBA  becomes  unbridgeable in later life.
